Sunil Gavaskar, the legendary cricketer, believes Team India, captained by Suryakumar Yadav, had something to show against Pakistan in the Asia Cup 2025 Super 4 on Sunday.

There was a lot of outside buzz around the match, with the 'handshake' issue dominating headlines following the previous meeting between these two sides on the field.

Gavaskar stated that pressure was one of the reasons for the dropped catches during the match, but that India was able to cope with it and use it to produce a match-winning performance. Indian fielders dropped four catches against Pakistan but managed to restrict them to 171/5 in 20 overs.

"I think, after all the halla-bullu that happened after the last game, the pressure was definitely on the Indians. Maybe it showed on the field, as they dropped relatively simple catches. Of course, there were some difficult ones, but the standard we see today makes even tough chances look simple," Gavaskar told India Today.

"Yes, the pressure was on India to win this game in style, especially given everything that happened last Sunday. In this way, they showed they have the temperament to handle all that and deliver under pressure," he added.

India chased down the total with ease as Abhishek Sharma hammered 74 in 39 balls and Shubman Gill made 47 in 28 balls, adding 105 runs for the first wickets. Despite India losing a few quick wickets after a strong start, Tilak Varma made a 19-ball 30* to take India to the win by 6 wickets.
